'That's less than the first time?' Khal thought to himself slightly disappointed as he watched King Zell's headless corpse fall to the ground like a trunk and paint the silver grass into a deep crimson color before turning into a floating yellowish substance.

"T-The King... Did he... die? Just like that?" a Night Crawler on the Peak Limit Breaker Stage muttered on a low, but shaky voice, his gaze wide like saucers.

And it was not only him but the rest of the creatures behind him too! All of them were shaking like leaves in a wild storm, their dread-filled eyes staring at Khal like he was some kind of monster that crawled out of the deepest pit of hell!

"F-Fuck this! I'm out of here!"

"Me too!"

"H-Hey! Where the hell you all think are going!"

In the very next second, all the Elders behind Khal together with Senior Lin watched with still dumbfounded faces as the creatures one by one began to turn around and run like rats fleeing a sinking ship in the middle of an ocean, pushing each other away from one another as if there was no tomorrow!

There were even a few that used their techniques to kill their comrades that were unlucky enough and happened to be in their paths, painting the silver scenery into the color of crimson and filling the air with the smell of iron in almost no time at all.

The once seemingly still and peaceful domain now became the literal home of death and the birthplace of souls! Night Crawlers fell lifelessly onto the ground one at a time like leaves in a cold autumn night, their corpses creating hills and their blood forming rivers.

"Such a waste." Khal clicked his tongue in annoyance as he watched the precious amount of essences getting wasted in front of his eyes, thus quickly summoned his sole Spiritual Weapon into his now free hand and waved it.

Swish!

With a single swing, Moonshadow's blade attached itself off from the handle and under Khal's precise control reaped almost hundreds of creatures' lives as if they were nothing but pigs before a well-sharpened blade that could only hope their death will be less painful than their comrades!

And exactly under a few minutes, all the Night Crawlers, let it be those on the Third or Fourth Cultivation Stage, each of them was slain without mercy, none of them given the chance to run away more than a few hundreds of meters!

All of their lives had their owner, and that someone was Khal and no one else!

[Your Body Essence has dropped below 20%!]

'More than 80% of my Body Essence was depleted just by dealing with a sole Peak Ascender Stage existence and several Third and Fourth Stage experts?' Khal seemed unsatisfied by the amount of essence he needed to use this time, but ala, because he could do nothing about it he just shook his head and accepted the fact.

However, if any of the Elders or Senior Lin would have known what he was currently thinking, it was sure they would choke him to death if not beat him up until he did not apologize!

He was complaining even after all the things that happened? Didn't he feel shame just by his own thoughts?

Just how many beings existed in the whole Second Realm that could achieve what he did just now? Let alone the fact that he just demonstrated a fact that was believed to be impossible until this moment, but he even annihilated literally an entire race including their leader too! Does he have any clue just what kind of feat did he achieve just now?

'But wait... Isn't this a good thing for us?' Senior Lin suddenly thought about something and her previously pale face gained back a bit of its color while her eyes brightened slightly.

'If this news gets out of here, the races that looked down on us now will have no choice but fear slightly and act with a little bit more caution when around us! With him here, we no longer have to feel worried about other races attacking us, and maybe... Just maybe we can have the chance to get the approval of the Moon Goddess!'

As those words appeared in her head, a slight flame of hope and excitement was ignited in her heart while her eyes looked at Khal's figure in the distance in a completely new light.

'No wonder the Ancestor thought so highly of him, he is truly one of a kind among the rest! The Ancestor truly is a superb man!'

However, if she would have known that her dear Ancestor only thought about Khal highly because he had the guts and power to go against her and resist her attacks back then and not because he knew the potential and strength hidden deep inside of Khal, what would her face be like?

Well, it would be a sight to witness that was for sure!

After killing all the creatures and leaving none of them alive, Khal quickly proceeded to consume the now yellowish substances above the ground and transform them into units of Body Essences, increasing the amount he had by a huge margin!

Now, his previous 167,436 units almost doubled, reaching 302,872 units in just under a few minutes!

Of course, the pain he felt during this time was great, but compared to the time when he tempered his body or refined his organs, it was nothing, could be even said was only a tickle at most!

As for the Elders and Senior Lin, they were still watching Khal's figure in the distance in silence and dumbfounded complexion, completely ignoring the moments where he groaned slightly or frowned out of pain.

However, they soon had to snap back into reality, especially because it was not long before Khal finished consuming all the essences in the blood and corpse-filled field, and now was walking forward them with slow steps.

"D-Disciple Khal..." Senior Lin and the Elders immediately stood up from the ground once Khal was before them, all of their expressions holding the same emotion; respect.

Khal seeing the several respectful gazes on his skin held an indifferent face, but deep inside felt satisfied and couldn't help but smile in his heart. Now that he showed off a little bit from his strength, he can ask for almost anything and hold position in the sect that won't be lower than that of the Sect Master!

He was sure he will be able to reach the Limit Breaker Stage in no time at all and focus his attention to reach the Fifth Cultivation Stage so he can finally attempt to enter the Zero Realm and go back to the First Realm as soon as possible!

As he thought about this and Liza's image popped up in his head, Khal's face turned serious and his gaze instantly shifted at Senior Lin's figure on the side before in a low and calm voice, said, "Sect Master, I need to ask for your help."
